The Marketization of the Education Industry in the Czech Republic.
Original language description
The marketization of nonprofit organizations is of both theoretical relevance and practical importance. In the presented paper, we examined the scope of nonprofit marketization in the post-transitional context of the Czech Republic in order to determinewhether the nonprofit commercial revenues are replacements for or additions to other funding sources. We focused on the Czech education industry. The research sample covered 89 public secondary schools from the South Moravian Region. The methodology wasbased on econometric and statistical methods using linked open data; the time sequence covered three years (2012 ? 2014). We based our approach on the work of McKay et al. (2011), adapted for Czech conditions. The authors used the Herfindahl-Hirschman Index and Modern Portfolio Theory to measure revenue diversification. This enabled the exploration of whether and to what extent the education industry in the Czech Republic has succumbed to market forces.
